After months of cucsideration, the council last week gave their offiâ€" cial approval to these public works: sewers, $6,885; sidewalks, $12,454.50 and paving ($50,,430. Although the work should have been started by now in order to take advanâ€" tage of the best construction weather, if the Municipal Board gives its approâ€" val within the next week or SsO, the town will be able to go ahead this year, If approval is not received early next month, the greater part of the works programme will be left until next year. This year‘s public works proposals have been hanging fire now since the beginning of the year and although the Municipal Board paid of visit to Timâ€" mins a couple of months ago, the counâ€" cil at that time had no figure or proâ€" posals to offer the members. Since that time the questions have been slated for discussion many times. Legal advice was obtained in the end, byâ€"laws preâ€" pared and approved.
